Shevlin Park
About
Shevlin Park is a park in Oregon, about 3.5 miles from the community of Tetherow. It sits close to a cluster of trails and climbing areas, making it a natural starting point for exploring the area. Summer and early fall are the most comfortable times to visit: typical averages from a nearby weather station in Bend put September highs around 76°F with only a couple of wet days in the month. Winter is colder, with December and January highs in the low 40s and a few snowy days each month. The Tumalo Creek Trail begins just 0.1 mile away, and the Shevlin Loop Trail is about 0.7 mile off. Paddlers can reach the Deschutes River within a mile. Climbers will find the Bend Area about 3 miles away.
